“Sugar. Oh, honey, honey… 🎶”
A Honey Bee collecting nectar from a flower. May 2026. Pretoria, South Africa.
Post processing notes:
I rotated and cropped a bit. Dropped the exposure, lifted mids and shadows. Added a Surreal Dynamic Contrast effect to the bee. Added a Glow effect to the background. The flower was distracting so I did a local Saturation reduction on it. And finally added a Strong Vignette.Exif information:
